It was a surprise visit by an unexpected invitation. Everything back in place with a bigger belly on DranGon's and onward to the journey ahead. Looking at DranGon stuff some heavy packages onto his back before he went, he's such a worthy one to deserve the title of the wrestling champion.
-What was I wanting to say... I sort of forgetting. -Dirotor yawned.
-About what I got as the champion? This...
And he leaned to a side, freed one hand of his and poked into the bag. But he didn't find it else where.
-Hang on, everyone. Can we stop a bit?
Dran dropped everything on his back onto the sandy surface and scrambled the whole bag, he didn't find it at all.
-It was a gemstone, said to have a special effect upon my strength but it isn't here. I don't think it can be consumed as he also said it could be forged.
Corvik pushed his chin up and saw it as a necklage under his armour.
-Isn't it on your neck?
DranGon shook his head... -That was embarassing.
-You doing great, sometimes just have to forget a bit. Here let me help you.
Shawon took a bag and carry it on himself, DranGon had a lot on his back carrying like horse would do. Wonder where were they going?
___
Walking on the edge of the jungle, they reached the ocean, specificly, Pofaly seaside named on the map.
-Are we going the right way? Didn't think we would meet the ocean.
-It's North East, but seem like we went slightly off the compass.
There was the cloud slowly getting dark as the cold wind blowing by.
-I think it's storming soon, possibly a tsunami. Water doesn't look normal. -DranGon warned as he sensed the water.
-Should we go back in somewhere like jungle?
The big wave had already started to rise up from the distance. Everyone made a big gasp...
-The cave ahead, quick! Run toward it!
Everyone rushed to the cave as the wave coming closer and closer. That cave was very fortunately to be at a very decent size and it carved upward. Soon everyone got in safely as the water violently rushed into the land and flood the entrance.
-It's so loud outside, hope this is stable enough.
-I will go check, stay here a bit.
Dran jumped into the water and swam outside. The water was really flooded, rised a lot higher than the trees. He swam around for more investigating and he saw someone being pulled by the water, he grabbed that person and swam back in the cave.
Shortly after, he arrived back and that victim was unconcious.
-Who is that? Must have been swept from the tsunami.
DranGon quietly left the cave and swam away. He saw something in the distance, it was blurred by his tired eyes. Something gray, dark blue... warm water cold air... Dran eventually felt tired and sunk to the bottom of the water...
___
-Wait, where did DranGon go?
-He left this person here and just gone? He could be saving someone but not for this long.
-Should we try come out? And see if everything calm down?
-If the water still this high, it means thing still going on or it may be the sea level.
-Nevertheless, can anyone here swim? -Corvik bumped his belly with Shawon -With this much fat I don't think I swim that well, plus I'm a raven too.
-Anyone else? Dirotor?
He looked for a while and then agreed to do the work. He left everything behind him and rushed into the water. Outside seemed to have calmed down, but DranGon was nowhere seen. Water still high up, he swam to the top of the nearby mountain where the cave was and climbed up. The sky was clear and the bright moon shone to the ocean. It was really in peace, and it was beautiful. But it missed something, who was the gazer? Why was the gazer missing?
Dirotor decided to swim back and to say that he found nothing beside the current weather.
Everyone was hungry, loud stomach groaned for food in the dark cave with only source of light from the bright moon reflecting through the water. It was cold and humid, thirsty and exhausted, and DranGon was missing, an unconcious victim...
___
The water had lowered, Corvik woke up to very slowly climb down the slope with his huge belly pressing his knees downward. It wasn't that harsh of the sun, bright weather and calm ocean. He woke everyone up through voice, everyone woke up and the lucky person also awoke.
-Oh, was I rescued?
-Yes, someone saved you but then went away unseen.
-I sense something familar the moment something grabbed me. I wonder if that who I thought of...
-Mind if we get out of here first then we go on with that?
Everyone got out of the cave safely, he then continued:
-The body was smooth, properly the front body pressed onto my body with the big arms folding. It was quite large and swam with incredible speed. I don't remember anything else when I fainted.
-Is that DranGon, the one you described? -Shawon wondered.
-Wait, is it really him?! I was looking for him.
-But well, he's unseen after he got you safe.
Everyone scattered to look for DranGon, the troublemaker himself. In the end it was no luck, nothing was hinted since he left everything back so he had to be naked to swim that fast. Everyone started to struggle and not knowing what to do next when someone was missing to continue on.
-Alright guys, lets sit down for a moment and get it through. -Corvik sat down with leg spreaded, getting his bit of belt a bit teared off, belching loudly.
-What did you mean, mister metal? -Shawon teased Corvik.
-No no, nothing!
Dirotor cut the word and asked:
-How were you end up in the water?
-I was following him from the distance, he forgot something that I wanted to give but I think I lost it during the water rush. Someone handed me the scroll and told me to hand him. I didn't read anything inside and I think it may have made the scroll disolve.
-You were behind us as when we were leaving?
-I... well true, I was afraid of the big mightly champion, to feel shy in front of the big title claimer himself.
He suddenly reliezed something, gasped and then continued.
-Oh goodness me I forgot to introduce myself, Kropir, just a normal guy living in the town.
There was a glance shone into Dirotor's eye, from the deep dark water. It felt like someone saw him sitting and was asking for help. Dirotor once again rushed to the water and swam toward the glance...
